The morning of May 2nd
at 10:23am
arrived at Maverick @ 200 W North Temple.
I stopped in at the Maverick to completely fill up my empty gas tank. When the pump stopped I had spent $76.89.
at 10:33am
after traveling 8.2 miles
I arrived at 4500 South off ramp
I was supposed to go to Bountiful for a meeting. Somewhere around the freeway on ramp at 600 south, my thoughts (which consisted of me musing what I might actually do if I somehow got to go on a date with Kristen Bell of "Veronica Mars" fame) distracted me and I got on going south (the opposite direction to Bountiful) I became aware of this after traveling 35 blocks and got off at the next exit to make a U-turn and headed to Bountiful.
at 10:55am
after traveling 14.9 miles
I arrived at Equity Solutions in Bountiful
Met, in a meeting. Left at 11:57am
at 12:11pm
I traveled 8.5 miles
I arrived Home
A girl at Equity Solutions pointed out at some point during my meeting that my shoes definitely didn’t match the rest of my “outfit”. She brought it up a couple of times, I didn’t even know I was wearing an "outfit," but I felt self conscious and went home and put on some flip flops. (those match everything don’t they?) Left at 12:14pm

I arrived at the Department of Workforce Services in Sandy.
I picked up my friend Grace who is looking for a new job and we went to lunch.
at 12:40pm
after traveling 2.1 miles
We arrived at Café Rio
I got the Steak Quesadilla with a side of creamy tomatillo dressing for dipping. Mmmm it was good, I ate the whole thing, which I seldom do. Grace got a chicken salad. We talked about regrets… it wasn’t as depressing as it sounds, it was a good talk. We left at 1:27pm.

We arrived at the Department of Workforce Services
Dropped Grace off, gave her the "perfect hug" and headed to work.
at 1:50pm
after traveling 4.1 miles
I arrived at My Office in West Jordan
I Worked. For work, I deal with peoples sensitive financial information. I grabbed this individuals on Wednesday and promised they would have them back by today... well I forgot to overnight them, so I figured I would just take them down there, and be a man of my word. Left the office at 4:10pm
at 4:44pm
after traveling 29.8 miles
I arrived at the Serve Pro office in Pleasant Grove
I dropped off the paperwork, chewed the fat for a bit and then headed back. Left at 4:51pm
at 5:40pm
after traveling 41.8 miles
I arrived at the Supersonic Car Wash in Salt Lake
It was too full so I pulled into the parking lot and pulled right back out.
at 5:45pm
after traveling 1.1 miles
I arrived at one of my rental properties (which happens to be two houses away from my home)
I met with some people interested in renting the house. We did a walk through, and they said they would take it. I informed them I was trying to sell it, and they didn't mind. We put it on a month to month arrangement, then I walked home. I was having a party for a friend at my house and for some reason it was imperative that we have karaoke... no one had confirmed that they had gotten a machine so I called my brother-in-law to borrow his. I left at 6:26pm to get it.
at 6:54pm
after traveling 21.1 miles
I arrived at the intersection of 7755 S and 1300 E
I got a call from My friend Nicole who told me that Anmaree had gotten a karaoke machine. So I turned around and went home. (talk about a retarded day to pick to chronicle my gas usage/wastage)
at 7:16pm
after traveling 19.3 miles
I arrived back home.
(On the drive out I took I-15 to I-80 eastbound which turns into I-215, and got off at the Union Park exit, on the way home I took I-215 west to I-80 eastbound, to I-15, I wouldn't have known this otherwise, but the second way was 1.8 miles shorter and 6 minutes faster!)
We played guitar hero and did some karaoke it was fun, the highlight of the evening was me and my brothers rendition of "Livin' On A Prayer" by Bon Jovi. I also laid the flirt really thick on this hotty named Tracey and managed to secure myself a date the following day! Crappy thing is, she is moving to Nevada in two weeks.
After the party, everyone left around 2am, I discovered my little dog, Movie, had escaped the confines of my back yard. Vodka, my other dog, and I jumped on the skateboard and looked for Movie for about 30 minutes. That didn't work, so I decided to jump in my car and widen the search area. I left my house at 2:56am.
at 3:55am
after traveling 8.2 miles
I arrived back home
Having not found my dog. I very slowly drove around a 6 block radius of my house, to no avail. Movie gets out a lot, he is little, and figures out ways to squeeze out of seemingly inconsequential holes. He knows where we live, and always comes home on his own after a few hours though, so I was a little concerned, but not enough to not fall asleep anyway.
End of day 1.
Total Miles Traveled = 176.3

The most disturbing thing about this post is the fact that this was only one month ago, and you got premium gas. Its gone up by 50 cents a gallon since then!
I concur with el shake above. Audis require babying, which is even more crazy uncheap lately. Sorry, dude...
I see you have August Rush on your Netflix movies at home. I hope you like it. Eventhough it's the cheesiest movie ever, I loved it.
There had better be a day two which finishes the Movie story. I can't believe you went to bed.
Oh my word! You better find that puppy. Let me know if you need help.
Since when does the day end at 3:55am? Looks like you've already started day 2
You and your love affair with Veronica Mars cracks me up.
I'm sure you singing "Like a Virgin" would have been a bigger highlight then Bon Jovi.
I must confess, I began skimming this post once it started to sound like a story problem.
But I was able to secure an image of you on a skateboard with Vodka and that made it all worth it.
Let me know what you think about August Rush. I had high expectations because I love all the people in it. But I thought it was kind of really bad.
